    Chapter 117 Isa’s Research


    “Ahem. You wanted to ask him questions? Well, it might be toote for that. He’s already dead,” Isa


    said, rubbing her nose with an embarrassed look.


    Osborne was taken aback. “Dead? How did he die? Did you experiment on him?”


    Isa pouted, sounding slightly irritated. “Yeal, elemental metahumans are so fragile, like ss. I


    barely even started, and he already kicked the bucket.


    “Another day with no results, I suppose.”


    Osborne was stunned.


    “Aren’t you supposed to be a top–notch doctor? Couldn’t you have done something to save him?”


    Isa shrugged. “He was shattered into pieces. Not even God could have saved him, let alone me.”


    “Shattered into pieces?” Osborne’s eyes widened.


    Now he understood why Isa had earned the nickname “Grim Reaper“.


    Milo hadsted two days under her care, but Pam, who was supposed to be stronger, barely


    made it a day.


    Osborne, now intensely curious, couldn’t help but ask, “Dr. Bowin, can I ask what exactly you’re


    experimenting with? It wouldn’t be one of those wicked human trials, would it?””


    Isa gave him a nonchnt look


    “I know what you’re thinking, but the experiments I conduct are for the future of humanity. They’re


    dangerous, sure, but they’re not cruel or evil”


    Osborne let out a sigh of relief at her words


    If Isa were conducting malevolent experiments, be’d have to reconsider how to deal with her


    because he couldn’t ept that.


    Luckily, Isa had denied it.


    Still, Osborne asked, “Can you tell me more about what you’re actually doing? How does it rte to


    the future of humanity?”


    Isa hesitated for a moment before saying “Tm searching for something–more specifically, a lock


    hidden within metahuman bodies


    “A lock?”


    Osborne was confused, thinking, “How could there be a lock inside a person’s body?


    And what does that have to do with humanity’s future?


    Isa said, her tone serious, “It’s not a regr lock, it’s a gic lock


    “Have you ever wondered why some people have powers while most don’t?”


    “Uh, isn’t that just a matter of probability?”


    Isa shook her head “I don’t thank so. I believe everyone’s body is the same and that everyone has

    powers in the process.”

    Osborne asked, surprised, “Unlocking a gic lock to gain powers?


    “Aren’t powers just a product of gic mutations?”


    Isa nodded. “Most people think that way. They don’t believe in gic locks, only mutations.


    “But I’m convinced the gic lock does exist.


    “The human body is a treasure trove of power, but it’s locked away. If I can find this lock, I can


    unlock the true secrets of metahumans. I can make every ordinary person be a powerful


    metahuman.


    “Imagine a world where billions of people have powers, where everyone can control the forces of


    nature and wield god–like powers.


    “The would no longer confine humanity. We’d venture into deep space and conquer vast new


    worlds”


    Isa’s eyes lit up with anticipation


    Osborne’s mouth hung open in shock. He thought, “I never imagined Isa’s research was aimed at


    this.


    Her goal is to make everyone in the world like gods, wielding extraordinary powers?”


    Isa tilted her head, studying him. “You think I can’t do it? You think I’m just wasting my time? You


    don’t support me?”


    Snapping back to reality, Osborne shook his head. “I think it’s definitely a tough challenge, but as


    long as you keep at it, there’s hope. So, yes, I support you.”


    Isa’s eyes lit up with excitement again.


    “Really**


    Osborne smiled, nodding. “Really. No matter how wild or unrealistic your ideas might be, you’re my


    friend. I’ve got your back. If you need help, just ask, and I’ll be there for you.”


    He spoke with genuine sincerity, making Isa momentarily stunned.


    Her beautiful eyes welled up with tears as she looked down.


    She said softly, “You know? You’re the first person to support me so unconditionally. Even


    Godfather… he thinks I’m just wasting my time.”


    Then, Isa lifted her gaze, her eyes gleaming with gratitude.

    “Im really d Godfather put me with you. If I need help, I’ll definitely turn to you


    “Thank you for trusting me.


    Without warning, Isa stepped forward and enveloped Osborne in a hug before he could react.


    She stood on tiptor and pressed a quick kiss to his cheek


    “This is your reward”
